The bylaws are tied up with resource consents and apply to ALL antennas with greater than a certain radiation field density. The Christchurch laws use a more stringent set of levels than the national ones - which makes the resource consents (much) harder to get !!
The building consents (which are conditional on resource consents) are more concerned with size, mounting etc etc etc BTW - the radiation level limits were in place well before ADSL rollouts started :-) Richard Smart >>> Chris Hellyar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 05/14 11:36 >>> 'Urro.. $350 for an 802.11 card, about $800 for a high gain base antenna. You could get away without the base antenna if you only wanted 50-100m coverage though. If the CHCH by-laws are the same as ours you'd not need a resource consent or planning permission assuming the aerial didn't obscure anyone's view, or sit more than 3 feet above the peak of the roof of your house.
